➤ Disadvantages of nuclear energy :-
☛ The waste products of nuclear fission reactions are radioactive which keep on emitting harmful nuclear radiations for thousands of years.
- So, It is very difficult to store or dispose of nuclear wastes safely.
- Improper nuclear waste or disposal can pollute the environment.
☛ There is the risk of accidents in nuclear reactors.
- such accident lead to the leakage of radioactive materials which can cause serious damage to the plant.animals and environment.
☛ The high cost of installation of nuclear power plants and the limited availability of uranium fuel make the large scale use of nuclear energy prohibited.
➤ Disadvantages of geothermal energy:-
☛ Geothermal energy is not available everywhere.It is available only in those areas where there are hot rocks near the earth's surface.
☛ The another disadvantages is that deep drilling in the earth to obtain geothermal energy is technically very difficult and expensive.
